Schedule meetings, create events, and manage your calendar across Google, Apple, and Outlook.

Meeting Notes

Capture meeting decisions, action items, and next steps in a structured format.

What each one does

Calendar

  • Creates calendar events and meetings with simple requests
  • Checks your availability and finds free time slots
  • Sets up recurring events and reminders
  • Syncs across Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, and Outlook
  • Shows your schedule for any time period

Meeting Notes

  • Structures notes with meeting header, agenda, decisions, action items, and next steps
  • Assigns each action item a specific owner and deadline to ensure accountability
  • Captures decisions with context explaining why they were made
  • Tracks open questions with owners responsible for finding answers
  • Adapts format for different meeting types like 1:1s, sprint planning, stakeholder syncs, or product reviews

When to pick each one

Reach for Calendar when…

  • You need to schedule a meeting without opening your calendar app
  • You're trying to find a free slot that works for everyone

  • You need to set up a recurring event or reminder

Reach for Meeting Notes when…

  • You're leading a meeting and need to document what was decided and who's doing what

  • You want to make sure nothing falls through the cracks after an important discussion
  • You're preparing for a specific meeting type like a roadmap review, stakeholder update, or sprint planning
